The Kabul government has welcomed Washington's decision, said Afghanistan's Deputy Interior Minister and former spokesman for President Ashraf Ghani. In a statement on Twitter, Siddiqui lashed out at the Taliban, saying the Taliban had not kept their promises and the peace deal had not achieved the desired results, as the Afghan people wanted an end to Taliban violence and a ceasefire. He said attacks on government property and assassinations of high-ranking officials had increased, especially in Kabul, where many journalists, activists, judges and politicians were being targeted in broad daylight.
The Taliban have denied the attacks, a Taliban spokesman told AFP when contacted. "We are committed to the agreement and we keep our promises," Mohammad Naeem, a spokesman for the Taliban's office in Qatar, told AFP. The other party will also abide by the agreement.
According to AFP, Emily Horn, a spokeswoman for the US National Security Council, said that Jack Sullivan, the new US National Security Adviser, had made it clear to his Afghan counterpart, Hamdullah Mohib, that the US administration was committed to the peace deal. According to Emily Horn, spokeswoman for the US National Security Council, Washington wants to assess whether the Taliban are living up to its promise to sever ties with terrorist groups, including reducing violence in Afghanistan. Significant talks can be held with the parties. According to Sullivan, in order to maintain the deal, the Taliban must respect all the points agreed upon in the deal, Afghanistan's acting national security minister said in a video statement. The conclusion of this review should be that there should be an agreement to end the attacks in the country. He hoped that the review would also meet the Afghan people's demand for an immediate end to violence in order to restore peace in the country.
According to the spokesman, Jack Sullivan made it clear that the United States would support the peace process through diplomatic efforts at the regional level so that the parties could find a lasting and just political solution to the problem and a permanent ceasefire could be reached between them. He also mentioned US support for the protection of the extraordinary achievements of Afghan women, girls and minority groups under the peace agreement. US President Joe Biden's top diplomat has also said he wants to end the 20-year-old war in Afghanistan forever and return his troops home. Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has called on new US President Joe Biden.
The administration has been urged to maintain the Afghan peace process, which the United States and the Taliban signed in Doha last year. In an interview with Al Jazeera, Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that Biden should realize that this is an opportunity in Afghanistan, to move this process forward because after a long our direction is fine. We are concerned that tensions could destabilize the environment, there are people inside Afghanistan who are spoiling the peace process who have benefited financially from the war and they don't give importance to peace.
It is the responsibility of the Afghan leadership to ensure the success of the peace process, this is their country and their future. The Arab League chief also hopes that Biden will change Trump's Middle East policies. It is no secret that until the situation in Afghanistan is completely peaceful and stable, no one can guarantee peace, let alone Pakistan or South Asia. The direct or indirect effects of instability in Afghanistan on Pakistan are nothing short of a nightmare.
Despite the outbursts, the national statement that the only solution to Afghanistan is political dialogue, not war, is why Pakistan played a key role in signing the Doha Peace Agreement . ۔ Unlike Biden and Trump, the newly elected President of the United States, who is not only mild-mannered but also well-versed in diplomacy, would not be unreasonable in expecting the sensitivity, delicacy and We will not miss the important opportunity for a solution.
